Have you ever felt like you're winging it in your practice, just waiting for someone to call you out and say, "You are a fake, a phony, and you have no business doing what you do. Who do you think you are, acting like you know how to get people well?” 😅

Well, you’re not alone! This week, we're diving into the not-so-secret secret that every practitioner faces at some point: imposter syndrome. Ronda gets real and shares why it's so common (even for those of us who look like we have it all together) and, more importantly, how to navigate it when it shows up.💡

Whether you're brand new to the wellness game or a seasoned practitioner, imposter syndrome can sneak up on you and keep you from fully owning your brilliance. But today, Ronda’s breaking down the mindset shifts and strategies you need to silence that inner critic and show up confidently in your practice. You’ve got this! 💪

Here’s What You’ll Learn:

😬 The sneaky ways imposter syndrome can show up in your practice (and why you're not alone in feeling this way).

🧠 How imposter syndrome has less to do with your skills and more about how you see yourself.

💸 Ronda’s personal experience with imposter syndrome (even with a seven-figure practice!) and why it still creeps in.

🌟 Practical strategies to shift your mindset, embrace your wins, and step into your role as the expert you are.

💬 The power of community and why having a supportive tribe is a game-changer for kicking imposter syndrome to the curb.

Key Takeaways:

1️⃣ Imposter Syndrome Is Normal. Every practitioner feels it, whether they're just starting out or have been in the game for years. It's all about how you perceive yourself.

2️⃣ You Are Enough. You don't have to be perfect or know everything. As long as you know a bit more than your patients, you're effectively the smartest person in the room.

3️⃣ Celebrate Your Wins. Keep a "win journal" closeby (even if you record them as a note on your phone!) to remind yourself of all the amazing things you are doing with your patients. This gives you the ammo to talk back to your imposter self and tell it to get lost. 

4️⃣ Find Your People. Don’t try to do it all alone. Lean on other practitioners for support, advice, and the encouragement you need to remember that you are someone’s health hero.

5️⃣ Shift the Narrative.  Instead of focusing on what you don’t know, remind yourself of what you do know. “I am knowledgeable. I am capable. I’ve got this."

When imposter syndrome shows up, remember:

🌟 Recognize and Acknowledge It -  Awareness is the first step toward shifting your mindset.

🌟Reframe Your Thoughts - Instead of dwelling on what you don’t know or what didn’t go well, focus on the fact that you’re always learning and growing.

🌟 Celebrate Your Progress - Look back at how far you’ve come since you first dipped your toe in the functional nutrition water and give yourself some well-deserved credit.

Here’s where you can find the support you need:

🤝 Clinical Mastery with Ronda Nelson - a Facebook group full of your peers who are ready to provide the support you need and a greater sense of community. 

🩺 Clinical Academy - this is the best investment you can make for yourself when it comes to clinical education. It’s a clinical library FULL of practical, simple, yet comprehensive protocols and information about a wide variety of clinical conditions and symptoms seen in the modern patient.

Many years ago, my daughter was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer. Yes, it was as devastating as it sounds. 💔 But through a miraculous turn of events and a supernatural miracle, she overcame the odds and her journey led me to become passionate about how to help the body become strong and resilient, despite the odds. 🙏🏼

But I learned that time is not always on our side. Sometimes, the cancer is so advanced that there simply isn’t enough time to provide the body with the support it needs to return to optimal health which is heartbreaking. 😞

Too often, people want to throw everything they can at cancer, thinking more is better. But that isn’t always the best approach. Without a plan, treatments and radical supplement protocols can be fractured, disconnected, and most importantly, expensive. 💸

While I don’t treat cancer directly, in this episode, I’m sharing my thoughts about how to support these types of patients with a simplified approach, allowing their bodies to rebuild one day at a time. 💪

And one of the game-changers when it comes to supporting patients struggling with cancer is vitamin B17. Found in humble seeds like apricots, apples, and cherries, this little powerhouse has shown promising results for several types of cancer.

Although the focus isn’t on “curing” the cancer, we can certainly help the body make faster progress by providing essential nutrients that not only optimize health but ‘may’ have an impact on how quickly one could recover from said condition. (How’s that for sideways speak?)

It’s really not that difficult when you think about it. Less is always more.🌟

In this episode you’ll hear:

👉 The benefits of incorporating B17 from natural sources into your cancer care regimen.

👉 Effective ways to manage stress with adaptogens, enhancing your overall well-being.

👉 Key strategies for optimizing digestion and nutrient absorption, crucial for fortifying the body's defenses against illness.
